Toying With October

My sister Violet wants me to start having more fun in my life, and that includes dating. She thinks if I find love my life will be better. I, on the other hand, am content with who I am. I do not need to date a man right now. I work two jobs to pay my bills and survive in a world that there is never enough money to cover my monthly bills. My plan is failing me when I lose a job and have to move into my sister’s carriage house. Everything changes when she sets me up on a date with one of her clients. I break Violet’s number one rule; don’t get attached.

I finish a project that I have been working on for weeks. I want to celebrate, so when my buddy, Ren wants me to come hang out with him at his employer’s house for a party, I go because there is nothing else to do. When I step into Moore Manor, the party is well underway. I get a drink at the bar while I wait for Ren to free himself from a client. I never thought I would be at an escort party, let alone for an escort to catch my eye. October Moore maybe sexy, but I don’t date, and I am sure as hell not paying for one. I have a black book full of names which I can call.
